Full description

This course will introduce educators, psychologists, employers, other specialists and parents to the theory and practice of Structural Cognitive Modifiability (SCM) and Mediated Learning Experience (MLE), developed by Prof. Reuven Feuerstein. This theory states that learning ability can be significantly enhanced, regardless of age, nature, cause or severity of condition.

The theory of Structural Cognitive Modifiability and its applied systems demonstrate how the learning and adaptability of each individual may be significantly improved by producing structural changes in the brain; making the learner more modifiable - more able to learn and to benefit from direct exposure to the environment and to new experiences.
